HUMAN SERVICES

     *Sec. 201   2009 c 564 s 201 (uncodified) is amended to read as follows:
     FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES. (1) Appropriations made in this act to the department of social and health services shall initially be allotted as required by this act. Subsequent allotment modifications shall not include transfers of moneys between sections of this act except as expressly provided in this act, nor shall allotment modifications permit moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose to be used for other than that purpose.
     (2) The department of social and health services shall not initiate any services that require expenditure of state general fund moneys unless expressly authorized in this act or other law. The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act. If the department receives unanticipated unrestricted federal moneys, those moneys shall be spent for services authorized in this act or in any other legislation providing appropriation authority, and an equal amount of appropriated state general fund moneys shall lapse. Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees. As used in this subsection, "unrestricted federal moneys" includes block grants and other funds that federal law does not require to be spent on specifically defined projects or matched on a formula basis by state funds.
     (3) The appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act shall be expended for the programs and in the amounts specified in this act.
     (4) The department is authorized to develop an integrated health care program designed to slow the progression of illness and disability and better manage medicaid expenditures for the aged and disabled population. Under this Washington medicaid integration partnership (WMIP), the department may combine and transfer such medicaid funds appropriated under sections 204, 206, 208, and 209 of this act as may be necessary to finance a unified health care plan for the WMIP program enrollment. The WMIP pilot projects shall not exceed a daily enrollment of 6,000 persons, nor expand beyond one county, during the 2009-2011 biennium. The amount of funding assigned to the pilot projects from each program may not exceed the average per capita cost assumed in this act for individuals covered by that program, actuarially adjusted for the health condition of persons enrolled in the pilot project, times the number of clients enrolled in the pilot project. In implementing the WMIP pilot projects, the department may: (a) Withhold from calculations of "available resources" as set forth in RCW 71.24.025 a sum equal to the capitated rate for individuals enrolled in the pilots; and (b) employ capitation financing and risk-sharing arrangements in collaboration with health care service contractors licensed by the office of the insurance commissioner and qualified to participate in both the medicaid and medicare programs. The department shall conduct an evaluation of the WMIP, measuring changes in participant health outcomes, changes in patterns of service utilization, participant satisfaction, participant access to services, and the state fiscal impact.
     (5)(a) The appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act shall be expended for the programs and in the amounts specified in this act. However, after May 1, 2010, unless specifically prohibited by this act, the department may transfer general fund--state appropriations for fiscal year 2010 among programs after approval by the director of financial management. However, the department shall not transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose except as expressly provided in (b) of this subsection.
     (b) To the extent that transfers under (a) of this subsection are insufficient to fund actual expenditures in excess of fiscal year 2010 caseload forecasts and utilization assumptions in the medical assistance, long-term care, foster care, adoptions support, and child support programs, the department may transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose. The department shall not transfer funds, and the director of financial management shall not approve the transfer, unless the transfer is consistent with the objective of conserving, to the maximum extent possible, the expenditure of state funds. The director of financial management shall notify the appropriate fiscal committees of the senate and house of representatives in writing seven days prior to approving any allotment modifications or transfers under this subsection. The written notification shall include a narrative explanation and justification of the changes, along with expenditures and allotments by budget unit and appropriation, both before and after any allotment modifications or transfers.

     (6) The legislature finds that medicaid payment rates, as calculated by the department pursuant to the appropriations in this act, bear a reasonable relationship to the costs incurred by efficiently and economically operated facilities for providing quality services and will be sufficient to enlist enough providers so that care and services are available to the extent that such care and services are available to the general population in the geographic area. The legislature finds that cost reports, payment data from the federal government, historical utilization, economic data, and clinical input constitute reliable data upon which to determine the payment rates.
     (7) With the objective of improving and enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the audit and oversight program, the department shall identify streamlining opportunities in the areas described in (a) through (d) of this subsection. The goals of these activities are to leverage department resources to better fulfill the obligations of all aspects of audit and oversight programs in an era of resource constraints and to assure that the burden of audits and other oversight activities on the state's businesses, organizations, and individuals is as minimal as practical.
     (a) The department shall complete an assessment of expanding the use of technology and automated data matches for identification and recovery of third party resources, including data matches with pharmacy benefit managers (PBM). The department shall submit a report to the governor and the relevant fiscal and policy committees of the legislature by September 1, 2010, that identifies resources needed to implement the enhanced data matching capability and the actions and timelines necessary for implementation of automated production data matching capability.
     (b) The department shall complete a comprehensive review of multiple licensing and certification reviews, onsite surveys, and contract oversight obligations that require provider site visits or require provider response. The department shall identify all related oversight and review activities and identify opportunities for consolidation of multiple clinical and business management review activities as appropriate with a view to minimizing the cost of both conducting and receiving the audits or other review or oversight activities.
     (c) The department shall expand its provider audit capacity through its provider one payment system. The department shall identify medicaid payment system enhancements that will maximize new technical capabilities. The department shall explore new technical capabilities of its fraud and abuse detection system to identify more efficient ways to correlate audit efforts to the levels of risk and materiality. Results of focused audits must be used to enhance educational materials. The department shall report to the governor and legislature by December 1, 2010, on the status of developing this audit capacity.
     (d) The department shall conduct a review and assessment of audit processes and timeframes. The department shall review audit outcomes from the past three fiscal years and will concentrate on identifying opportunities to shorten timeframes between the various stages of an audit, including the letter of intent to audit, records collection to issuance of the draft audit, dispute resolution activities, issuance of the final audit, and administrative hearings. The department shall initiate a provider outreach and education program to include communication materials that clearly identify expectations of the department and the provider being audited. The department must develop and publish an orientation to medicaid audits publication by October 1, 2010, that includes audit requirements, expectations of providers and the department, and associated timelines. The department shall report to the governor and relevant policy and fiscal committees of the legislature by December 1, 2010, on the status of these activities.

Evidence-based programs, based on the criteria established by the Washington state institute for public policy, and disposition alternatives will be funding priorities. Funds may be used for promising practices when approved by juvenile rehabilitation administration, based on criteria established in consultation with Washington state institute for public policy and the juvenile courts.
     By September 1, 2009, a committee with four members, in consultation with Washington state institute for public policy, shall develop a funding formula that takes into account the juvenile courts average daily population of program eligible youth in conjunction with the number of youth served in each approved evidence-based program or disposition alternative. The committee shall have one representative from the juvenile rehabilitation administration, one representative from the office of financial management, one representative from the office of the administrator of the courts, and one representative from the juvenile courts. Decision making will be by majority rule.
     By September 1, 2010, the Washington state institute for public policy shall provide a report to the office of financial management and the legislature on the administration of the block grant authorized in this subsection. The report shall include the criteria used for allocating the funding as a block grant and the participation targets and actual participation in the programs subject to the block grant.
     (b) By December 1, 2009, the committee established in (a) of this subsection, in consultation with Washington state institute for public policy, shall propose to the office of financial management and the legislature changes in the process of funding and managing, including accountability and information collection and dissemination, grants to juvenile courts for serving youth adjudicated in the juvenile court system use in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011. The proposal shall include, but is not limited to: A process of making a block grant of funds consistent with (a) of this subsection; a program of data collection and measurement criteria for receiving the funds which will include targets of the number of youth served in identified evidence-based programs and disposition alternatives in which the juvenile courts and office of the administrator of the courts will have responsibility for collecting and distributing information and providing access to the data systems to the juvenile rehabilitation administration and the Washington state institute for public policy related to program and outcome data; and necessary changes to the Washington administrative code.
     (c) Within the funds provided for criminal justice analysis in section 610(4) of this act, the Washington state institute for public policy shall conduct an analysis of the costs per participant of evidence-based programs by the juvenile courts and by December 1, 2009, shall report the results of this analysis to the juvenile rehabilitation administration, the juvenile courts, office of the administrator of the courts, the office of financial management, and the fiscal committees of the legislature
)) For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, the juvenile rehabilitation administration shall administer a block grant, rather than categorical funding, of consolidated juvenile service funds, community juvenile accountability act grants, the chemical dependency disposition alternative funds, the mental health disposition alternative, and the sentencing disposition alternative for the purpose of serving youth adjudicated in the juvenile justice system. In making the block grant, the juvenile rehabilitation administration shall follow the following formula and will prioritize evidence-based programs and disposition alternatives and take into account juvenile courts program-eligible youth in conjunction with the number of youth served in each approved evidence-based program or disposition alternative: (i) Thirty-seven and one-half percent for the at-risk population of youth ten to seventeen years old; (ii) fifteen percent for moderate and high-risk youth; (iii) twenty-five percent for evidence-based program participation; (iv) seventeen and one-half percent for minority populations; (v) three percent for the chemical dependency disposition alternative; and (vi) two percent for the mental health and sentencing dispositional alternatives. Funding for the special sex offender disposition alternative (SSODA) shall not be included in the block grant, but allocated on the average daily population in juvenile courts. Funding for the evidence-based expansion grants shall be excluded from the block grant formula. Funds may be used for promising practices when approved by the juvenile rehabilitation administration and juvenile courts, through the community juvenile accountability act committee, based on the criteria established in consultation with Washington state institute for public policy and the juvenile courts.
     (b) It is the intent of the legislature that the juvenile rehabilitation administration phase the implementation of the formula provided in subsection (1) of this section by including a stop-loss formula of three percent in fiscal year 2011, five percent in fiscal year 2012, and five percent in fiscal year 2013. It is further the intent of the legislature that the evidence-based expansion grants be incorporated into the block grant formula by fiscal year 2013 and SSODA remain separate unless changes would result in increasing the cost benefit savings to the state as identified in (c) of this subsection.
     (c) The juvenile rehabilitation administration and the juvenile courts shall establish a block grant funding formula oversight committee with equal representation from the juvenile rehabilitation administration and the juvenile courts. The purpose of this committee is to assess the ongoing implementation of the block grant funding formula, utilizing data-driven decision making and the most current available information. The committee will be cochaired by the juvenile rehabilitation administration and the juvenile courts, who will also have the ability to change members of the committee as needed to achieve its purpose. Initial members will include one juvenile court representative from the finance committee, the community juvenile accountability act committee, the risk assessment quality assurance committee, the executive board of the Washington association of juvenile court administrators, the Washington state center for court research, and a representative of the superior court judges association; two representatives from the juvenile rehabilitation administration headquarters program oversight staff, two representatives of the juvenile rehabilitation administration regional office staff, one representative of the juvenile rehabilitation administration fiscal staff and a juvenile rehabilitation administration division director. The committee may make changes to the formula categories other than the evidence-based program and disposition alternative categories if it is determined the changes will increase statewide service delivery or effectiveness of evidence-based program or disposition alternative resulting in increased cost benefit savings to the state. Long-term cost benefit must be considered. Percentage changes may occur in the evidence-based program or disposition alternative categories of the formula should it be determined the changes will increase evidence-based program or disposition alternative delivery and increase the cost benefit to the state. These outcomes will also be considered in determining when evidence-based expansion or special sex offender disposition alternative funds should be included in the block grant or left separate.
     (d) The juvenile courts and administrative office of the courts shall be responsible for collecting and distributing information and providing access to the data systems to the juvenile rehabilitation administration and the Washington state institute for public policy related to program and outcome data. The juvenile rehabilitation administration and the juvenile courts will work collaboratively to develop program outcomes that reinforce the greatest cost benefit to the state in the implementation of evidence-based practices and disposition alternatives.
     (e) By December 1, 2010, the Washington state institute for public policy shall report to the office of financial management and appropriate committees of the legislature on the administration of the block grant authorized in this subsection. The report shall include the criteria used for allocating the funding as a block grant and the participation targets and actual participation in the programs subject to the block grant

Projects funded should focus on preventing, intervening, and suppressing behavioral problems and violence while linking at-risk youth to pro-social activities. The department may not expend more than $1,850,000 per fiscal year. The costs of administration must not exceed four percent of appropriated funding for each grant recipient. Each entity receiving funds must report to the juvenile rehabilitation administration on the number and types of youth served, the services provided, and the impact of those services upon the youth and the community.
     (9) The appropriations in this section assume savings associated with the transfer of youthful offenders age eighteen or older whose sentences extend beyond age twenty-one to the department of corrections to complete their sentences. Prior to transferring an offender to the department of corrections, the juvenile rehabilitation administration shall evaluate the offender to determine the offender's physical and emotional suitability for transfer.

The department shall work with regional support networks and the center for medicare and medicaid services to integrate eligible components of the PACT service delivery model into medicaid capitation rates no later than January 2011, while maintaining consistency with all essential elements of the PACT evidence-based practice model.
     (c) $6,500,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2010 and $6,500,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely for the western Washington regional support networks to provide either community- or hospital campus-based services for persons who require the level of care provided by the program for adaptive living skills (PALS) at western state hospital.
     (d)
The number of nonforensic beds allocated for use by regional support networks at eastern state hospital shall be 192 per day. The number of nonforensic beds allocated for use by regional support networks at western state hospital shall be 617 per day during the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, and 587 per day thereafter. Beds in the program for adaptive living skills (PALS) are not included in the preceding bed allocations. The department shall separately charge regional support networks for persons served in the PALS program.
     (((d))) (e) From the general fund--state appropriations in this subsection, the secretary of social and health services shall assure that regional support networks reimburse the aging and disability services administration for the general fund--state cost of medicaid personal care services that enrolled regional support network consumers use because of their psychiatric disability.
     (((e))) (f) $4,582,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2010 and $4,582,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely for mental health services for mentally ill offenders while confined in a county or city jail and for facilitating access to programs that offer mental health services upon release from confinement.
     (((f))) (g) The department is authorized to continue to contract directly, rather than through contracts with regional support networks, for children's long-term inpatient facility services.
     (((g))) (h) $750,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2010 and $750,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely to continue performance-based incentive contracts to provide appropriate community support services for individuals with severe mental illness who were discharged from the state hospitals as part of the expanding community services initiative. These funds will be used to enhance community residential and support services provided by regional support networks through other state and federal funding.
     (((h))) (i) $1,500,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2010 and $1,500,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely for the Spokane regional support network to implement services to reduce utilization and the census at eastern state hospital. Such services shall include:
     (i) High intensity treatment team for persons who are high utilizers of psychiatric inpatient services, including those with co-occurring disorders and other special needs;
     (ii) Crisis outreach and diversion services to stabilize in the community individuals in crisis who are at risk of requiring inpatient care or jail services;
     (iii) Mental health services provided in nursing facilities to individuals with dementia, and consultation to facility staff treating those individuals; and
     (iv) Services at the sixteen-bed evaluation and treatment facility.

     (((i))) (j) The department shall return to the Spokane regional support network fifty percent of the amounts assessed against the network during the last six months of calendar year 2009 for state hospital utilization in excess of its contractual limit. The regional support network shall use these funds for operation during its initial months of a new sixteen-bed evaluation and treatment facility that will enable the network to reduce its use of the state hospital, and for diversion and community support services for persons with dementia who would likely otherwise require care at the state hospital.
     (((j))) (k) The department is directed to identify and implement program efficiencies and benefit changes in its delivery of medicaid managed-care services that are sufficient to operate within the state and federal appropriations in this section. Such actions may include but are not limited to methods such as adjusting the care access standards; improved utilization management of ongoing, recurring, and high-intensity services; and increased uniformity in provider payment rates. The department shall ensure that the capitation rate adjustments necessary to accomplish these efficiencies and changes are distributed uniformly and equitably across all regional support networks statewide. The department is directed to report to the relevant legislative fiscal and policy committees at least thirty days prior to implementing rate adjustments reflecting these changes.
     (((k))) (l) In developing the new medicaid managed care rates under which the public mental health managed care system will operate during the five years beginning in fiscal year 2011, the department should seek to estimate the reasonable and necessary cost of efficiently and effectively providing a comparable set of medically necessary mental health benefits to persons of different acuity levels regardless of where in the state they live. Actual prior period spending in a regional administrative area shall not be a key determinant of future payment rates. The department shall report to the office of financial management and to the relevant fiscal and policy committees of the legislature on its proposed new waiver and mental health managed care rate-setting approach by October 1, 2009, and again at least sixty days prior to implementation of new capitation rates.
     (m) In implementing the new public mental health managed care payment rates for fiscal year 2011, the department shall to the maximum extent possible within each regional support network's allowable rate range establish rates so that there is no increase or decrease in the total state and federal funding that the regional support network would receive if it were to continue to be paid at its October 2009 through June 2010 rates. The department shall additionally revise the draft rates issued January 28, 2010, to more accurately reflect the lower practitioner productivity inherent in the delivery of services in extremely rural regions in which a majority of the population reside in frontier counties, as defined and designated by the national center for frontier communities.
     (((l))) (n) $1,529,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2010 and $1,529,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely to reimburse Pierce and Spokane counties for the cost of conducting 180-day commitment hearings at the state psychiatric hospitals.
     (((m))) (o) The legislature intends and expects that regional support networks and contracted community mental health agencies shall make all possible efforts to, at a minimum, maintain current compensation levels of direct care staff. Such efforts shall include, but not be limited to, identifying local funding that can preserve client services and staff compensation, achieving administrative reductions at the regional support network level, and engaging stakeholders on cost-savings ideas that maintain client services and staff compensation. For purposes of this section, "direct care staff" means persons employed by community mental health agencies whose primary responsibility is providing direct treatment and support to people with mental illness, or whose primary responsibility is providing direct support to such staff in areas such as client scheduling, client intake, client reception, client records-keeping, and facilities maintenance.
     (p) Regional support networks may use local funds to earn additional federal medicaid match, provided the locally matched rate does not exceed the upper-bound of their federally allowable rate range, and provided that the enhanced funding is used only to provide medicaid state plan or waiver services to medicaid clients. Additionally, regional support networks may use a portion of the state funds allocated in accordance with (a) of this subsection to earn additional medicaid match, but only to the extent that the application of such funds to medicaid services does not diminish the level of crisis and commitment, community inpatient, residential care, and outpatient services presently available to persons not eligible for medicaid.

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) Based on quarterly expenditure reports and caseload forecasts, if the department estimates that expenditures for the medical assistance program will exceed the appropriations, the department shall take steps including but not limited to reduction of rates or elimination of optional services to reduce expenditures so that total program costs do not exceed the annual appropriation authority.
     (2) In determining financial eligibility for medicaid-funded services, the department is authorized to disregard recoveries by Holocaust survivors of insurance proceeds or other assets, as defined in RCW 48.104.030.
     (3) The legislature affirms that it is in the state's interest for Harborview medical center to remain an economically viable component of the state's health care system.
     (4) When a person is ineligible for medicaid solely by reason of residence in an institution for mental diseases, the department shall provide the person with the same benefits as he or she would receive if eligible for medicaid, using state-only funds to the extent necessary.
     (5) In accordance with RCW 74.46.625, $6,000,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided solely for supplemental payments to nursing homes operated by public hospital districts. The public hospital district shall be responsible for providing the required nonfederal match for the supplemental payment, and the payments shall not exceed the maximum allowable under federal rules. It is the legislature's intent that the payments shall be supplemental to and shall not in any way offset or reduce the payments calculated and provided in accordance with part E of chapter 74.46 RCW. It is the legislature's further intent that costs otherwise allowable for rate-setting and settlement against payments under chapter 74.46 RCW shall not be disallowed solely because such costs have been paid by revenues retained by the nursing home from these supplemental payments. The supplemental payments are subject to retrospective interim and final cost settlements based on the nursing homes' as-filed and final medicare cost reports. The timing of the interim and final cost settlements shall be at the department's discretion. During either the interim cost settlement or the final cost settlement, the department shall recoup from the public hospital districts the supplemental payments that exceed the medicaid cost limit and/or the medicare upper payment limit. The department shall apply federal rules for identifying the eligible incurred medicaid costs and the medicare upper payment limit.
     (6) $1,110,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation and $1,105,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011 are provided solely for grants to rural hospitals.

     (7) $9,818,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2011, and $9,865,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to nonrural hospitals. The department shall distribute the funds under a formula that provides a relatively larger share of the available funding to hospitals that (a) serve a disproportionate share of low-income and medically indigent patients, and (b) have relatively smaller net financial margins, to the extent allowed by the federal medicaid program.
     (8) The department shall continue the inpatient hospital certified public expenditures program for the 2009-11 biennium. The program shall apply to all public hospitals, including those owned or operated by the state, except those classified as critical access hospitals or state psychiatric institutions. The department shall submit reports to the governor and legislature by November 1, 2009, and by November 1, 2010, that evaluate whether savings continue to exceed costs for this program. If the certified public expenditures (CPE) program in its current form is no longer cost-effective to maintain, the department shall submit a report to the governor and legislature detailing cost-effective alternative uses of local, state, and federal resources as a replacement for this program. During fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2011, hospitals in the program shall be paid and shall retain one hundred percent of the federal portion of the allowable hospital cost for each medicaid inpatient fee-for-service claim payable by medical assistance and one hundred percent of the federal portion of the maximum disproportionate share hospital payment allowable under federal regulations. Inpatient medicaid payments shall be established using an allowable methodology that approximates the cost of claims submitted by the hospitals. Payments made to each hospital in the program in each fiscal year of the biennium shall be compared to a baseline amount. The baseline amount will be determined by the total of (a) the inpatient claim payment amounts that would have been paid during the fiscal year had the hospital not been in the CPE program based on the reimbursement rates developed, implemented, and consistent with policies approved in the 2009-11 biennial operating appropriations act (chapter 564, Laws of 2009) and in effect on July 1, 2009, (b) one half of the indigent assistance disproportionate share hospital payment amounts paid to and retained by each hospital during fiscal year 2005, and (c) all of the other disproportionate share hospital payment amounts paid to and retained by each hospital during fiscal year 2005 to the extent the same disproportionate share hospital programs exist in the 2009-11 biennium. If payments during the fiscal year exceed the hospital's baseline amount, no additional payments will be made to the hospital except the federal portion of allowable disproportionate share hospital payments for which the hospital can certify allowable match. If payments during the fiscal year are less than the baseline amount, the hospital will be paid a state grant equal to the difference between payments during the fiscal year and the applicable baseline amount. Payment of the state grant shall be made in the applicable fiscal year and distributed in monthly payments.

PART VI
HIGHER EDUCATION

Sec. 601   2009 c 564 s 601 (uncodified) is amended to read as follows:
     The appropriations in sections 605 through 611 of this act are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) "Institutions" means the institutions of higher education receiving appropriations under sections 605 through 611 of this act.
     (2) The legislature, the office of financial management, and other state agencies need consistent and accurate personnel data from institutions of higher education for policy planning purposes. Institutions of higher education shall report personnel data to the department of personnel for inclusion in the department's data warehouse. Uniform reporting procedures shall be established by the department of personnel for use by the reporting institutions, including provisions for common job classifications and common definitions of full-time equivalent staff. Annual contract amounts, number of contract months, and funding sources shall be consistently reported for employees under contract.
     (3) In addition to waivers granted under the authority of RCW 28B.15.910, the governing boards and the state board may waive all or a portion of operating fees for any student. State general fund appropriations shall not be provided to replace tuition and fee revenue foregone as a result of waivers granted under this subsection.
     (4) The colleges of education for institutions with appropriations in sections 606 through 611 shall develop a plan, by October 30, 2009, to increase the number of math and science teacher endorsements and certificates granted by the institution. The plan shall address the college's math and science teacher endorsement and certification completion goal for each of the next six years, beginning with the 2010-2011 academic year, and shall be reported to the governor, the relevant policy committees of the legislature, the higher education coordinating board (HECB) and the professional educator standards board (PESB). Plan components may address: Student advising practices, increased outreach and recruitment efforts to under-represented populations, linkages with university mathematics and science departments, and implementation of redesigned, innovative endorsement and certification programs. To accomplish this work, enrollments may need to be shifted from low-need endorsement and certificate areas to math and science. A report shall be made each October 30th to the HECB and PESB regarding the degree to which plan goals have been met and activities undertaken to support those outcomes.
     (5) In accordance with RCW 28B.10.920 through 28B.10.922, the state performance agreement committee and each public four-year institution of higher education shall develop performance agreements for the period September 1, 2009, through June 30, 2015. The agreements shall reflect the level of state, tuition, and other resources appropriated or authorized for each institution in this act and in the omnibus 2009-11 omnibus capital budget act, as well as reasonably anticipated changes in such resources for the two subsequent biennia as required to accomplish the higher education master plan as adopted by the legislature. The agreements shall build upon each institution's actual performance relative to the 2011 targets previously negotiated between the institution, the higher education coordinating board, and the office of financial management, and shall include measurable performance targets, benchmarks, and goals in areas including but not limited to:
     (a) Student enrollment levels, by campus;
     (b) Baccalaureate and advanced degree production;
     (c) Baccalaureate and advanced degree production in high employer-demand fields;
     (d) Undergraduate retention and graduation rates;
     (e) Time-to-degree for students entering as freshmen, and as upper-division transfers;
     (f) Efficiency to degree; and
     (g) Capital investment as required to (i) maintain existing capacity, and (ii) meet enrollment targets in accordance with the master plan as adopted by the legislature.
Each institution shall report progress toward its performance targets during the preceding academic year to the state performance agreement committee prior to November 1, 2010. The higher education coordinating board shall consolidate and summarize the institutional reports, and provide them to the relevant policy and fiscal committees of the legislature by December 1, 2010.
     (6) To facilitate transparency and compliance with the American recovery and reinvestment act, the institutions of higher education receiving state and federal appropriations under sections 605 through 611 of this act shall allot anticipated state, federal, and tuition expenditures by budget program and fiscal year. The office of financial management shall notify the legislative ways and means committees of the proposed allotments at least ten days prior to their approval.
     (7) To the extent permitted by the applicable personnel system rules, and to the extent collectively bargained with represented employees, institutions of higher education are encouraged to achieve the reductions in full-time-equivalent employment and payroll levels necessary to operate within this budget through strategies that will minimize impacts on employees, their families, their communities, and short- and longer-term accomplishment of institutional mission. Institutions are encouraged to utilize strategies such as reduced work-hours per day or week, voluntary leave without pay, and temporary furloughs that enable employees to maintain permanent employment status. Institutions are further encouraged to implement such strategies in ways that will enable employees to maintain full insurance benefits, full retirement service credit, and a living wage.
     (8)(a) For institutions receiving appropriations in section 605 of this act the only allowable salary increases provided are those with normally occurring promotions and increases related to faculty and staff retention, to the extent permitted by Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 5460, ((and)) House Bill No. 2328, and Substitute Senate Bill No. 6382. In fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2011, the state board for community and technical colleges may use salary and benefit savings from faculty turnover to provide salary increments and associated benefits for faculty who qualify through professional development and training.
     (b) For employees under the jurisdiction of chapter 41.56 RCW, salary increases will be in accordance with the applicable collective bargaining agreement. However, an increase shall not be provided to any classified employee whose salary is above the approved salary range maximum for the class to which the employee's position is allocated.
     (c) For each institution of higher education receiving appropriations under sections 606 through 611 of this act:
     (i) The only allowable salary increases are those associated with normally occurring promotions and increases related to faculty and staff retention, to the extent permitted by Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 5460 ((and)), House Bill No. 2328, and Substitute Senate Bill No. 6382; and
     (ii) Institutions may provide salary increases from other sources to instructional and research faculty, exempt professional staff, teaching and research assistants, as classified by the office of financial management, and all other nonclassified staff, but not including employees under RCW 28B.16.015, to the extent permitted by Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 5460 ((and)), House Bill No. 2328, and Substitute Senate Bill No. 6382. Any salary increase granted under the authority of this subsection (8)(c)(ii) shall not be included in an institution's salary base for future state funding. It is the intent of the legislature that state general fund support for an institution shall not increase during the current or any future biennium as a result of any salary increases authorized under this subsection (8)(c)(ii).

Sec. 602   2009 c 564 s 602 (uncodified) is amended to read as follows:

     (2) The department, through the sole authority of the office or its successor organization, shall maintain a program where telecommunications relay services of a human or electronic nature will be provided to connect hearing impaired, deaf-blind, or speech impaired persons with persons who do not have a hearing or speech impairment. Such telecommunications relay services shall provide the ability for an individual who has a hearing or speech impairment to engage in voice, tactile, or visual communication by wire or radio with a hearing individual in a manner that is functionally equivalent to the ability of an individual who does not have a hearing or speech impairment to communicate using voice or visual communication services by wire or radio subject to subsection (4)(b) of this section.

     (ii) Participant contributions, under chapter 48.125 RCW, used to determine the receipts in this state under this section shall be determined in the same manner as premiums taxable in this state are determined under RCW 48.14.090.
     (c) "Regulatory surcharge" means the fees imposed by this section.
     (2) The annual cost of operating the office of insurance commissioner shall be determined by legislative appropriation.

Each class of organization shall contribute a sufficient amount to the insurance commissioner's regulatory account to pay the reasonable costs, including overhead, of regulating that class of organization.
     (3) The regulatory surcharge shall be calculated separately for each class of organization. The regulatory surcharge collected from each organization shall be that portion of the cost of operating the insurance commissioner's office, for that class of organization, for the ensuing fiscal year that is represented by the organization's portion of the receipts collected or received by all organizations within that class on business in this state during the previous calendar year. However, the regulatory surcharge must not exceed one-eighth of one percent of receipts and the minimum regulatory surcharge shall be one thousand dollars.
     (4) The commissioner shall annually, on or before June 1st, calculate and bill each organization for the amount of the regulatory surcharge.

Any organization failing to pay the regulatory surcharges by June 30th shall pay the same penalties as the penalties for failure to pay taxes when due under RCW 48.14.060. The regulatory surcharge required by this section is in addition to all other taxes and fees now imposed or that may be subsequently imposed.
     (5) All moneys collected shall be deposited in the insurance commissioner's regulatory account in the state treasury which is hereby created.
     (6) Unexpended funds in the insurance commissioner's regulatory account at the close of a fiscal year shall be carried forward in the insurance commissioner's regulatory account to the succeeding fiscal year and shall be used to reduce future regulatory surcharges.
     (7)(a) Each insurer may annually collect regulatory surcharges remitted in preceding years by means of a policyholder surcharge on premiums charged for all kinds of insurance. The recoupment shall be at a uniform rate reasonably calculated to collect the regulatory surcharge remitted by the insurer.
     (b) If an insurer fails to collect the entire amount of the recoupment in the first year under this section, it may repeat the recoupment procedure provided for in this subsection (7) in succeeding years until the regulatory surcharge is fully collected or a de minimis amount remains uncollected. Any such de minimis amount may be collected as provided in (d) of this subsection.
     (c) The amount and nature of any recoupment shall be separately stated on either a billing or policy declaration sent to an insured. The amount of the recoupment must not be considered a premium for any purpose, including the premium tax or agents' commissions.
     (d) An insurer may elect not to collect the regulatory surcharge from its insured. In such a case, the insurer may recoup the regulatory surcharge through its rates, if the following requirements are met:
     (i) The insurer remits the amount of surcharge not collected by election under this subsection; and
     (ii) The surcharge is not considered a premium for any purpose, including the premium tax or agents' commission.
     (8) During the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer from the insurance commissioner's regulatory account to the state general fund such amounts as reflect the excess fund balance in the account.

Capital funds shall be distributed among state agencies and local governments according to the same criteria provided in RCW 70.93.220 for the remainder of the funds, so that the most effective waste reduction, litter control, and recycling programs receive the most funding. The intent of this subsection is to provide funds for the purchase of equipment that will enable the department to account for the greatest return on investment in terms of reaching a zero litter goal.
     (4) During the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer from the waste reduction, recycling, and litter control account to the state general fund such amounts as reflect the excess fund balance of the account.

Additionally, during the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, subsection (1)(a), (b), and (c) of this section is suspended.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 946   A new section is added to chapter 43.79 RCW to read as follows:
     The legislature recognizes that efforts to restructure state operations to achieve greater efficiency are often impeded by the lack of a financing tool to support the transition and phase-down of state operations. The state efficiency and restructuring account is established in the state treasury to finance efforts to restructure state operations and achieve budget savings. Moneys from the account may be expended only after appropriation. As directed by the legislature, the state treasurer must transfer funds from specified accounts into the state efficiency and restructuring account to support appropriations from that account. The state treasurer must maintain a record of such transfers and must calculate repayment obligations to any accounts providing surplus funds for a term of eight years at an interest rate that is five tenths of a percent higher than the interest rate that the account would have earned without the transfer. The state treasurer must submit a report of all such repayment obligations to the office of financial management by September 1st of each year. The governor's budget request under RCW 43.88.060 must include sufficient funds to meet the biennial repayment obligation.

Sec. 947   RCW 70.105D.130 and 2008 c 106 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) The cleanup settlement account is created in the state treasury. The account is not intended to replace the state toxics control account established under RCW 70.105D.070. All receipts from the sources identified in subsection (2) of this section must be deposited into the account. Moneys in the account may be spent only after appropriation. Expenditures from the account may be used only as identified in subsection (4) of this section.
     (2) The following receipts must be deposited into the cleanup settlement account:
     (a) Receipts from settlements or court orders that direct payment to the account and resolve a person's liability or potential liability under this chapter for either or both of the following:
     (i) Conducting future remedial action at a specific facility, if it is not feasible to require the person to conduct the remedial action based on the person's financial insolvency, limited ability to pay, or insignificant contribution under RCW 70.105D.040(4)(a);
     (ii) Assessing or addressing the injury to natural resources caused by the release of a hazardous substance from a specific facility; and
     (b) Receipts from investment of the moneys in the account.
     (3) If a settlement or court order does not direct payment of receipts described in subsection (2)(a) of this section into the cleanup settlement account, then the receipts from any payment to the state must be deposited into the state toxics control account.
     (4) Expenditures from the cleanup settlement account may only be used to conduct remedial actions at the specific facility or to assess or address the injury to natural resources caused by the release of hazardous substances from that facility for which the moneys were deposited in the account. Conducting remedial actions or assessing or addressing injury to natural resources includes direct expenditures and indirect expenditures such as department oversight costs. During the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer excess fund balances in the account into the state efficiency and restructuring account. Transfers of excess fund balances made under this section shall be made only to the extent amounts transferred with required repayments do not impair the ten-year spending plan administered by the department of ecology for environmental remedial actions dedicated for any designated clean-up site associated with the Everett smelter and Tacoma smelter, including plumes, or former Asarco mine sites. The cleanup settlement account must be repaid with interest under provisions of the state efficiency and restructuring account.
     (5) The department shall track moneys received, interest earned, and moneys expended separately for each facility.
     (6) After the department determines that all remedial actions at a specific facility, and all actions assessing or addressing injury to natural resources caused by the release of hazardous substances from that facility, are completed, including payment of all related costs, any moneys remaining for the specific facility must be transferred to the state toxics control account established under RCW 70.105D.070.
     (7) The department shall provide the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature with a report by October 31st of each year regarding the activity within the cleanup settlement account during the previous fiscal year.

Sec. 948   RCW 70.146.100 and 2007 c 233 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

     (2) Expenditures from the water quality capital account may only be used: (a) To make grants or loans to public bodies, including grants to public bodies as cost-sharing moneys in any case where federal, local, or other moneys are made available on a cost-sharing basis, for the capital component of water pollution control facilities and activities; (b) for purposes of assisting a public body to obtain an ownership interest in water pollution control facilities; or (c) to defray any part of the capital component of the payments made by a public body to a service provider under a service agreement entered into under RCW 70.150.060. During the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer from the water quality capital account to the state general fund such amounts as reflect the excess fund balance of the account.

Sec. 949   RCW 79.105.150 and 2009 c 564 s 959 are each amended to read as follows:

After appropriation, these funds shall be used solely for aquatic lands enhancement projects; for the purchase, improvement, or protection of aquatic lands for public purposes; for providing and improving access to the lands; and for volunteer cooperative fish and game projects. During the 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the aquatic lands enhancement account may also be used for scientific research as part of the adaptive management process. During the 2009-11 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer from the aquatic lands enhancement account to the state general fund such amounts as reflect excess fund balance of the account.
     (2) In providing grants for aquatic lands enhancement projects, the recreation and conservation funding board shall:
     (a) Require grant recipients to incorporate the environmental benefits of the project into their grant applications;
     (b) Utilize the statement of environmental benefits, consideration, except as provided in RCW 79.105.610, of whether the applicant is a Puget Sound partner, as defined in RCW 90.71.010, whether a project is referenced in the action agenda developed by the Puget Sound partnership under RCW 90.71.310, and except as otherwise provided in RCW 79.105.630, and effective one calendar year following the development and statewide availability of model evergreen community management plans and ordinances under RCW 35.105.050, whether the applicant is an entity that has been recognized, and what gradation of recognition was received, in the evergreen community recognition program created in RCW 35.105.030 in its prioritization and selection process; and
     (c) Develop appropriate outcome-focused performance measures to be used both for management and performance assessment of the grants.

     (4) The department shall consult with affected interest groups in implementing this section.
     (5) After January 1, 2010, any project designed to address the restoration of Puget Sound may be funded under this chapter only if the project is not in conflict with the action agenda developed by the Puget Sound partnership under RCW 90.71.310.

Regulatory fees payable by all types of public service companies shall be deposited to the credit of the public service revolving fund. Except for expenses payable out of the pipeline safety account, all expense of operation of the Washington utilities and transportation commission shall be payable out of the public service revolving fund.
     During the ((2003-2005)) 2009-2011 fiscal biennium, the legislature may transfer from the public service revolving fund to the state general fund such amounts as reflect the excess fund balance of the fund.
     ((Due to the extraordinarily high winter energy costs, during the 2005-2007 fiscal biennium, no more than seven million six hundred thousand dollars, as appropriated in section 1, chapter 3, Laws of 2006, shall be payable out of the public service revolving fund to provide energy assistance to customers in accordance with the low-income energy assistance program.))

Sec. 951   RCW 80.36.430 and 2009 c 564 s 960 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) The Washington telephone assistance program shall be funded by a telephone assistance excise tax on all switched access lines and by funds from any federal government or other programs for this purpose. Switched access lines are defined in RCW 82.14B.020. The telephone assistance excise tax shall be applied equally to all residential and business access lines not to exceed fourteen cents per month. The department shall submit an approved annual budget for the Washington telephone assistance program to the department of revenue no later than March 1st prior to the beginning of each fiscal year. The department of revenue shall then determine the amount of telephone assistance excise tax to be placed on each switched access line and shall inform local exchange companies and the utilities and transportation commission of this amount no later than May 1st. The department of revenue shall determine the amount of telephone assistance excise tax by dividing the total of the program budget funded by the telephone assistance excise tax, as submitted by the department, by the total number of switched access lines in the prior calendar year. The telephone assistance excise tax shall be separately identified on each ratepayer's bill as the "Washington telephone assistance program." All money collected from the telephone assistance excise tax shall be transferred to a telephone assistance fund administered by the department.
     (2) Local exchange companies shall bill the fund for their expenses incurred in offering the telephone assistance program, including administrative and program expenses. The department shall disburse the money to the local exchange companies. The department is exempted from having to conclude a contract with local exchange companies in order to effect this reimbursement. The department shall recover its administrative costs from the fund. The department may specify by rule the range and extent of administrative and program expenses that will be reimbursed to local exchange companies.
     (3) The department shall enter into an agreement with the department of ((community, trade, and economic development)) commerce for an amount not to exceed eight percent of the prior fiscal year's total revenue for the administrative and program expenses of providing community service voice mail services. The community service voice mail service may include toll-free lines in community action agencies through which recipients can access their community service voice mailboxes at no charge.
     (4) During the 2009-2011 biennium, the department shall enter into an agreement with the ((military department)) WIN 211 organization for ((one million dollars to)) operational support ((the WIN 211 program)).

"I am returning, without my approval as to Sections 109; 117, page 17, lines 10-11; 127(27); 127(28); 127(31); 127(36); 127(38); 127(39); 129, page 35, lines 19-20; 129(3); 129(6); 131(2); 201(7); 204(3)(f); 205(1)(m); 205(1)(n); 205(1)(o); 205(1)(p); 205(1)(r); 205(1)(s); 206(20); 206(21); 207(2); 207(11); 209(14); 209(35); 209(38); 209(39); 209(40); 209(41); 209(42); 209(47); 212(6); 212(7); 214(7); 214(8); 221(21); 221(28); 223(2)(h); 303(3); 303(4); 304(4); 306(2); 308(15); 501(1)(b); 501(1)(f)(iv); 604(7); 605(5); 708; 717; 803, page 281, line 38, and page 282, lines 1-11; 803, page 283, lines 20-22; 803, page 283, lines 23-27; 803, page 285, lines 28-31; 902; 908; 920; 926; 937; and 939, Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6444 entitled:

     "AN ACT Relating to fiscal matters."

I am vetoing the following appropriation items because of concerns with policy or technical issues relating to the legislative provisions:

Section 109, page 10, Supreme Court, Change to Fiscal Year 2011 General Fund-State Appropriation
The reduced appropriation to the Supreme Court in this section will impede the Court's capacity to hear cases in a timely manner. The Court will work with the Legislature to implement budget reductions in the 2011 Supplemental Budget; therefore, I have vetoed Section 109.

Section 117, page 17, lines 10-11, Lieutenant Governor, Reduction to Private/Local Appropriation
The $2,000 reduction in the existing private/local fund appropriation would require the agency to turn away grant funds from a local school district. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 117, lines 10-11.

Section 127(27), page 30, Department of Commerce, Microenterprise Development Organizations
This proviso prohibits the Department of Commerce from reducing the funding for microenterprise development organizations by more than ten percent this biennium. This restriction limits the agency's ability to manage necessary budget reductions. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 127(27).

Section 127(28), pages 30-31, Department of Commerce, Workgroup to Study Gaps in State Commercialization Programs
This proviso requires the Department of Commerce to convene a work group to study the gaps and overlaps in programs that commercialize research and technology initiatives. This group must prepare a report to the Legislature no later than December 1, 2010, that identifies any gaps and overlaps, evaluates strategies to reduce administrative expenses, and recommends changes that would amplify and accelerate innovation-driver job creation in the state. No funding was provided for the review and study. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 127(28). However, I am directing the Department of Commerce to conduct as much of a review as is possible within its existing resources because I believe the information required by the proviso will be useful.

Section 127(31), pages 31-32, Department of Commerce, Separate Budget Request for the Economic Development Commission
This proviso requires the Economic Development Commission, currently funded through the Department of Commerce, to develop a separate budget request and work plan. It also creates an account for the receipt of gifts, donations, sponsorships, or contributions from which only the Commission or its designee may authorize expenditures. Because the Economic Development Commission is part of the Department of Commerce, its budget and work plan is and should remain part of the Department's budget requests. In addition, it is inappropriate to establish an account in an appropriations bill. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 127(31).

Section 127(36), page 34, Department of Commerce, New Account for Washington Technology Center
This proviso creates the Investing in Innovation Account to be used only by the Washington Technology Center in carrying out the Investing in Innovation Grants Program and other innovation and commercialization activities. Since the Center is a non-profit organization, not a public agency, it cannot administer a state account. In addition, it is inappropriate to establish an account in an appropriations bill. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 127(36).

Section 127(38), page 34, Department of Commerce, Washington State Quality Award Training for Small Manufacturers and Other Businesses
This subsection provides $50,000 in General Fund-State funding for Washington State Quality Award Council training for small manufacturers and other businesses/organizations engaged in continuous quality improvement, performance measurement, strategic planning, and other approaches that enhance productivity. The state's current and projected fiscal environment necessitates spending on only the most essential state programs and activities, and spending $50,000 on this activity will provide minimal benefit to Washington's small businesses. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 127(38).

Section 127(39), page 34, Department of Commerce, Appropriation to Manufacturing Innovation and Modernization Account
This subsection provides $50,000 in General Fund-State funding for deposit into the Manufacturing Innovation and Modernization Account, which provides vouchers to small manufacturers to purchase consulting services from a qualified manufacturing extension partner affiliate. To date, no small manufacturers have taken advantage of this program, and approximately $150,000 remains in the account. Given the state's current and projected fiscal environment and the lack of demand for these services, an additional deposit of funds into this account does not seem warranted. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 127(39).

Section 129, page 35, lines 19-20, Office of Financial Management, Change to Fiscal Year 2011 General Fund-State Appropriation
The reduction to the Fiscal Year 2011 appropriation is vetoed in order to retain sufficient funds to conduct two critical budget-related studies: an independent assessment of placements in residential habilitation centers in Section 129(6) and an analysis and strategic business plan for the Consolidated State Data Center and Office in Section 129(7). Insufficient funds were provided to prepare a valuable study, and no new funds were provided for the Data Center study. The agency will still implement all administrative reductions assumed in the budget as passed, and the additional spending authority will be used to accomplish the new work assigned to the agency. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 129, lines 19-20.

Section 129(3), pages 36-37, Office of Financial Management, Washington State Quality Award Training
This subsection provides $25,000 in General Fund-State funding for the Office of Financial Management to contract with the Washington State Quality Award Program to provide training for state managers and employees. The state's current and projected fiscal environment necessitates spending on only the most essential requirements. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 129(3).

Section 129(6), page 38, Office of Financial Management
The $200,000 appropriation for this study is divided between two fiscal years so the Office of Financial Management will not be able to use half of the money, making it impossible to satisfactorily complete the review as envisioned. Therefore, I am vetoing section 129(6). In order to assess the status of people who currently live in residential habilitation centers, I am directing the Department of Social and Health Services to conduct assessments in a similar manner as is done for people in community residential programs. The assessments shall include interviews with all residential habilitation center residents or guardians of residents to determine the optimum setting for these individuals and shall include the option and choice to remain in a residential habilitation center. The Office of Financial Management shall contract with an independent consultant to review the assessments and determine whether there are funded options available in the community for residential habilitation center residents who indicate an interest in moving to a community placement and whether appropriate services and resources in the community exist or can be developed to provide adequate care for people with developmental disabilities. The consultant shall provide a report to me and the Legislature by December 1, 2010. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 129(6).

Section 131(2), page 40, Department of Personnel, Employee Satisfaction Synopsis and Workforce Management Assessment
This proviso requires the Department of Personnel to provide a synopsis of survey data regarding state employee satisfaction and an assessment of career and executive work force management concerns. There is a technical problem with an incorrect reference to Section 119(4) instead of Section 123(4). For this reason, I am vetoing Section 131(2), but directing the Department to comply with the intent of the proviso to the degree possible within existing resources.

Section 201(7), pages 58-59, Department of Social and Health Services, Audit and Oversight Improvement
This proviso requires multiple changes to the Department's audit and oversight programs. This requirement would create a significant administrative burden, and no funding was provided for this purpose. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 201(7).

Section 204(3)(f), pages 81-82, Department of Social and Health Services, Report on Mental Health Services for Children
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to provide a report on improving services for children who are at greatest risk of requiring long-term inpatient and residential care due to the severity of their emotional impairments. The proviso requires the Family Policy Council to prepare an inventory of current publicly funded efforts in Washington to identify children at risk of emotional impairments and to provide intervention before a mental disorder manifests itself. In light of national health care reform and the state's efforts to reorganize in response, requiring that a report be prepared by October 1, 2010, will not give the Department sufficient time to respond to health care reform, formulate a redesigned plan to address children's mental health, and work with the federal government. As the Department is currently involved in litigation regarding children's mental health, and because I believe that all aspects of the public children's mental health system need to be evaluated in light of national health care reform and because a deadline of October 1 does not provide sufficient time to respond, I have vetoed Section 204(3)(f).

Section 205(1)(m), page 88, Department of Social and Health Services, County Employment Funding
This proviso prohibits the Department of Social and Health Services from reducing expenditures for contracts with counties for employment assistance for people with developmental disabilities. This restriction limits the Department's ability to manage necessary budget reductions. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(m).

Section 205(1)(n), page 88, Department of Social and Health Services Developmental Disabilities Program, Agency Provider Savings and Hourly Rates
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to report on the fiscal impact of Chapter 571, Laws of 2009 (Substitute House Bill 2361) and the relative hourly costs of agency providers and individual providers. However, no funding is provided for this purpose. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(n).

Section 205(1)(o), pages 88-89, Department of Social and Health Services Developmental Disabilities Program, Workgroup on Administrative Burdens for the Homecare Industry
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to convene a new work group to address administrative burdens on the homecare industry and to report on its findings. However, no funding is provided. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(o).

Section 205(1)(p), page 89, Department of Social and Health Services, Report on Placements for Residential Clients
This proviso requires a quarterly report on all placements for residential clients in the community protection and expanded community programs in the Division of Developmental Disabilities. Because of the cost involved, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(p) and am directing the Department of Social and Health Services to continue providing the quarterly reports, which cover only new residential clients added to the programs in the current biennium.

Section 205(1)(r), page 89, Department of Social and Health Services, Self-Advocate Support
This proviso directs the Department of Social and Health Services to spend an additional $100,000 to provide instruction in self-advocacy to families of individuals with developmental disabilities. In these difficult economic times, it is not prudent to expand services. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(r).

Section 205(1)(s), pages 89-90, Department of Social and Health Services, Community Support
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to spend an additional $100,000 for parent-to-parent networks and community support groups for people with developmental disabilities. In a time when we are reducing other valuable core services of state government, we cannot afford to expand these services. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 205(1)(s).

Section 206(20), page 97, Department of Social and Health Services Aging and Adult Services Program, Agency Provider Savings and Hourly Rates
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to report on the fiscal impact of Chapter 571, Laws of 2009 (Substitute House Bill 2361) and the relative hourly costs of agency providers and individual providers. However, no funding is provided. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 206(20).

Section 206(21), pages 97-98, Department of Social and Health Services Aging and Adult Services Program, Workgroup on Administrative Burdens for the Homecare Industry
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to convene a new work group to address administrative burdens for the homecare industry and to report on its findings. However, no funding is provided. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 206(21).

Section 207(2), pages 101-102, Department of Social and Health Services, Subcabinet Report on WorkFirst
This proviso directs the WorkFirst Subcabinet and Department of Social and Health Services to report on services provided and accessed by both general population clients and limited English proficiency clients. No funding is provided for this report. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 207(2).

Section 207(11), page 106, Department of Social and Health Services, Limited English Proficiency Services
This proviso reinstates a portion of the reduction taken in the 2009-11 enacted budget for limited English proficiency services. Given the budget context, it is not appropriate to restore this reduction. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 207(11).

Section 209(14), page 112-113, Department of Social and Health Services, Disability Lifeline Report on Transition from Fee-for-Service to Managed Care
This revised proviso requires the Department of Social and Health Services to report to the Legislature by November 1, 2010, on the impact of moving Lifeline medical clients from fee-for-service to managed care, and expands the outcomes to be included in the evaluation currently required. Since there is a lengthy lag period between when services are received by a client and when they are paid for by the state, there will not be sufficient data to report. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(14).

Section 209(35), page 117, Department of Social and Health Services, Medication Therapy Management
This proviso requires the Department of Social and Health Services to enter into a contract for medication therapy management services only if the contractor guarantees the program will generate savings. While there may be merit in this concept, no additional administrative resources were provided for implementation. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(35).

Section 209(38), page 117, Department of Social and Health Services, Lowest Cost Prescription Drug Option
This proviso requires the Department of Social and Health Services to purchase a brand-name drug if the drug, after rebates and discounts, is the lowest-cost drug option. The Department has made good progress in reducing the growth in drug costs for state-purchased health care. This has been done through establishing a preferred drug list and emphasizing generic substitutes when appropriate. The Department will continue to purchase the lowest-cost drugs possible. However, there are challenges with implementing this requirement as written. In addition, no funding has been provided for this report. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 209(38).

Section 209(39), page 117, Department of Social and Health Services, Report on New Prescription Drug Benchmark
The Department of Social and Health Services is required to report to the Legislature concerning the establishment of a new benchmark for prescription drugs to replace the Average Wholesale Price. No funding has been provided for this report. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(39).

Section 209(40), page 117, Department of Social and Health Services, School-based Medicaid Services
The proviso declares that sufficient funding is provided in the Appropriations Act to fund medical services provided to Medicaid clients in a school setting. This proviso restricts the agency's ability to limit services in this area should the budget situation demand it. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(40).

Section 209(41), page 118, Department of Social and Health Services, Pursuing and Reporting Drug Pricing Opportunities
The Department of Social and Health Services is required to report on the opportunities available to the state through the federal 340B drug pricing program. This program provides certain federally supported program discounts on prescription drugs used for outpatient services. No funding was provided for this report. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(41).

Section 209(42), page 118, Department of Social and Health Services, Transition Plan to Move Fee-for-Service to Managed Care
The Department of Social and Health Services is required to develop a transition plan for the state's aged, blind, and disabled clients to move from a fee-for-service medical delivery system to a managed care delivery system. Since no funding was provided for this transition plan, I have vetoed Section 209(42). However, I am directing the Secretary of the Department of Social and Health Services and Administrator of the Health Care Authority to continue to assess the feasibility and cost effectiveness of moving from fee-for-service to managed care plans.

Section 209(47), pages 118-119, Department of Social and Health Services, Establishing Rates to Apple Health Managed Care
This proviso establishes the method by which premiums for the Apple Health Program will be established for rates set after July 1, 2010. As we move to implement national health care reform, it will be imperative that we retain as much flexibility as possible to control the cost of purchasing health care. As written, the proviso limits the Department of Social and Health Service's ability to adjust premiums to reflect the actual cost of providing health care within individual plans. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 209(47).

Section 212(6), page 121, Department of Social and Health Services, Governor's Juvenile Justice Advisory Committee
This proviso limits any budget cuts to the Governor's Juvenile Justice Advisory Committee. In this budget environment, state government should not be restricted from any possible avenues to reduce spending. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 212(6).

Section 212(7), pages 121-122, Department of Social and Health Services, Autism Health Coverage Study
The Department of Social and Health Services is directed to report, in collaboration with the Health Care Authority, on the fiscal impact of state-purchased health care to cover autism spectrum disorder diagnosis and treatment for individuals younger than 21 years. This is not the time to engage in new studies to assess the expansion of state-paid services, no matter how worthy. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 212(7).

Section 214(7), pages 124-125, Health Care Authority, Continuum of Care Pilot Project
This proviso directs the Health Care Authority to establish two pilot projects for low-income adults who are waiting for health care coverage from the Basic Health Plan. We are in the earliest stages of implementing national health care reform. At the same time, we struggle to maintain the state safety net in very difficult budget times. I need the Health Care Authority to focus on these two tasks. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 214(7).

Section 214(8), page 125, Health Care Authority, Nonsubsidized Basic Health Plan
The proviso directs the Health Care Authority, should it offer Basic Health Plan coverage to non-subsidized clients, to provide information concerning other health care coverage options. This requirement creates an unfunded administrative burden. It also duplicates the provision of such information currently available from the Office of the Insurance Commissioner. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 214(8).

Section 221(21), page 140, Department of Health, Funding for Nursing Commission Programs Related to Discipline, Impaired Practitioners and Expedited Credentials
This proviso, in combination with Section 926, reduces the library access surcharge applied to certification fees for nursing professionals. The surcharge, which all health professions pay, is used to provide access to health care literature through the University of Washington. This critical resource allows providers the opportunity to learn of best practices used in their professions and furthers the ongoing education of all health care professionals. While I support the purposes for which this funding would have been diverted, this funding source should continue to be dedicated to advancing the use of evidence-based health care practices in Washington. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 221(21).

Section 221(28), page 141, Department of Health, Tobacco Cessation Program Reductions
This proviso requires ten percent of every tobacco cessation program contract be directed for addressing minority populations. This proviso is unnecessary because the Tobacco Cessation Program in the aggregate spends eighteen percent of its resources to serve these target populations. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 221(28).

Section 223(2)(h), pages 144-145, Department of Corrections, Report on Earned Release Date
This proviso directs the Department of Corrections to submit a report by June 1, 2010, addressing issues related to the release of offenders on the earned release date. This task cannot be completed in the short timeframe specified in the proviso. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 223(2)(h) and am directing the Department to submit its report to the Office of Financial Management and legislative fiscal committees by August 1, 2010. The Department will use this report to identify strategies to reduce the recent increase in the number of offenders held beyond their earned release dates, while maintaining public safety as a priority.

Section 303(3), pages 160-161, State Parks and Recreation Commission, Park Closure Language
Current budget language is revised to eliminate the provision that state parks may be closed if donation revenue is insufficient for ongoing operations. While this change does not appear to create an absolute prohibition on the closure of state parks, the revised language may create that impression. This would severely limit the agency's ability to manage state parks in the event that revenues drop below appropriated levels. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 303(3).

Section 303(4), page 161, State Parks and Recreation Commission, Restriction on Closure of Tolmie State Park
This proviso prohibits the State Parks and Recreation Commission from closing Tolmie State Park. I have encouraged the Commission to continue pursuing the transfer of certain state parks in the event that revenues decrease to manage the statewide parks system within budget. The Commission needs to retain this flexibility. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 303(4).

Section 304(4), page 162, Recreation and Conservation Funding Board, Extension of the Biodiversity Council
This proviso extends the Biodiversity Council for one year, through the end of Fiscal Year 2011. While I strongly support the work of the Biodiversity Council, I am asking the Natural Resources Cabinet to absorb the Council's oversight role. As we undergo the process of natural resources reform, the Natural Resources Cabinet will assume many leadership roles previously performed by other entities. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 304(4).

Section 306(2), page 163, State Conservation Commission, Infrastructure Improvements Related to Wildlife Habitat
This proviso dedicates $38,000 of the General Fund-State for improving infrastructure on state-owned lands in Kittitas County. While habitat improvements are an important step in managing the balance between wildlife conservation and grazing rights, funding for this endeavor can be pursued via other means, including State Conservation Commission grants, local conservation district funding, and private sources. The state's current and projected fiscal environment necessitates spending on essential services and programs. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 306(2).

Section 308(15), page 173, Department of Natural Resources, Excluding Shellfish Growers from the Department's Aquatic Habitat Conservation Plan
This proviso requires the Department of Natural Resources to exclude shellfish growers from its aquatic Habitat Conservation Plan if those growers have been issued a federal nationwide or individual permit. The Department and the shellfish industry have signed a Memorandum of Understanding which requires the Department and shellfish growers to finalize an agreement on shellfish aquaculture activities before the aquatic Habitat Conservation Plan is finalized. Because this is a collaborative effort, it would be inappropriate for the proviso to place restrictions on the unfinished product. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 308(15).

Section 501(1)(b), pages 182-183, Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, School District Reorganization Commission
This proviso creates a statewide commission on school district reorganization. I want school districts to focus their maximum attention on the immediate priorities of improving student learning and successfully implementing the next phase of education reforms. The charge to the Commission created in this proviso is very broad, and funding provided to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction is insufficient to achieve the mandates of the proviso. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 501(1)(b). The Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee is conducting a study of the relationship between the cost of school districts and their enrollment size. Upon completion of its report, I encourage the Legislature and the Office of the Superintendent to explore opportunities for a focused review of school district organization.

Section 501(1)(f)(iv), page 185, Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, Exempting the Professional Educator Standards Board from Expenditure Restrictions
This section exempts the Professional Educator Standards Board from the restrictions on travel allowances and meeting costs that apply to other boards and commissions under Chapter 7, Laws of 2010, First Extraordinary Session (Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2617). This law allows agencies to seek exceptions to the travel and meeting restrictions for critically necessary work. To maintain consistency in the application of these restrictions among state boards and commissions, I have vetoed Section 501(1)(f)(iv).

Section 604(7), pages 243-244, University of Washington, Telecommunications Report
This subsection provides $183,000 to the Technology Law and Public Policy Center at the University of Washington School of Law to prepare a report analyzing trends in the telecommunications industry and pathways for telecommunications reform. This work overlaps with the functions of the state Utilities and Transportation Commission. This expenditure does not meet the highest priorities of state government at this time. Therefore I have vetoed Section 604(7).

Section 605(5), page 246, Washington State University, Business and Entrepreneurial Development Program Plan
This subsection provides $100,000 to the Small Business Development Center at Washington State University to develop a state plan for coordination of small business and entrepreneurial development programs. Expenditure of funds on this effort does not meet the highest priorities of state government at this time. Therefore I have vetoed Section 605(5).

Section 708, pages 270-271, Washington Management Service and Exempt Management Services Reductions
This section ties to Section 2 of Engrossed Senate Bill 6503, which I have vetoed. The budget proviso assumes additiona1 compensation reductions of $10 million in General Fund-State funding from Washington Management Service and exempt managers, who comprise less than five percent of state employees. This cut would require that specified staff take nearly two weeks of temporary layoff time beyond the ten days included in ESB 6503. This inequity is likely to create problems in recruiting and retaining qualified and experienced workers, as well as be disruptive to normal state operations. Managers will be subject to temporary layoffs in the same proportion as all affected state employees. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 708.

Section 717, pages 276-278, Agency Reallocation and Realignment of Washington Commission
Section 717 creates the Agency Reallocation and Realignment of Washington Commission. Its responsibilities would include examining current state operations and organization, and making proposals to reduce expenditures and to eliminate duplication and overlapping services. The sum of $250,000 in General Fund-State dollars is provided for this purpose. While I strongly support these goals, there are programs that address the same concerns, most notably the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee, the Office of the State Auditor's performance audit program, the Governor's Government Management, Accountability, and Performance program, and the Office of Financial Management's Priorities of Government budget development process. I hope to have further discussions with legislative leadership to identify ways to address these issues within existing structures and resources. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 717.

Section 803, page 281, line 38, and page 282, lines 1-11, Transfers from the Tobacco Settlement Account to the General Fund and the Life Sciences Discovery Fund
This transfer decreases funding for critical life sciences research by $16.2 million, representing a 76 percent biennial reduction when coupled with the $26 million reduction to the fund in the enacted 2009-11 biennial budget. In order to implement this level of reduction, the Life Sciences Discovery Authority would have to discontinue any future state grants for critical life sciences research. Funding at the current level is vital to accomplishing the state's Life Sciences Research and Development goal of tripling the state's life sciences research base and creating more than 20,000 new jobs. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 803, page 281, line 38, and page 282, lines 1 through 11.

Section 803, page 283, lines 20-22, Transfer from the Budget Stabilization Account to the General Fund
The transfers required by this budget appropriation were intended to take place if the Budget Stabilization Account transfers in House Bill 3197 did not occur. Since that measure passed and has been signed into law, the transfer is void. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 803, page 283, lines 20-22.

Section 803, page 283, lines 23-27, Transfer from the Liquor Revolving Account to the General Fund
This transfer is associated with a provision in Section 939 that allows restaurants and bars an exemption from paying a price increase on spirits. Since I have vetoed Section 939, I am also vetoing Section 803, page 283, lines 23-27.

Section 803, page 285, lines 28-31, Transfer from the Insurance Regulatory Account to the General Fund
This appropriation implements the transfer of $10 million from the Insurance Commissioner's Regulatory Account to the General Fund-State authorized in Section 937. This transfer would place the Insurance Commissioner's Regulatory Account into a cash deficit position beginning in Fiscal Year 2011. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 803, page 285, lines 28-31.

Section 902, pages 289-290, Agency Staffing Report
The agency staffing report required by Section 902 adds another layer of complexity to the data already required to be reported through allotment and accounting systems. The addition of monthly job class information adds immensely to agency workloads with seemingly minimal benefit. I am directing the Office of Financial Management to work with legislative fiscal staff to identify alternative reporting formats that can be useful without creating an unacceptable workload burden. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 902.

Section 908, page 294, Electronic Renewal Notices
This proviso mandates that every state agency make all of its renewals electronic by July 1, 2012. While I support the customer convenience and potential cost savings from doing business by electronic means, we must first assess the question of whether agencies have the staffing and fiscal resources to accomplish this task. I will encourage all agencies to pursue electronic renewal options within their current budgets and to identify obstacles for possible consideration in the new biennial budget. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 908.

Section 920, pages 301-302, Washington State Quality Awards
Section 920 accelerates the date by which agencies must apply to the Washington State Quality Awards program. It also limits that requirement for agencies that have more than 300 full-time equivalent employees. A great deal of time and effort is required for a well-executed Washington State Quality Award application. The new date of June 30, 2010, is too short a timeframe, especially for large agencies that may have to submit multiple applications. For these reasons, I am vetoing Section 920, pages 301-302.

Section 926, pages 306-307, Use of Surcharge for Nursing Professional Credentials
Because I have vetoed the program enhancement (Section 221(21)) supported by this funding, I am also vetoing Section 926, which authorizes the specific use of a portion of the existing surcharge on credential fees.

Section 937, pages 318-320, Authority for Transfer from the Insurance Regulatory Account to the General Fund
Section 937 amends RCW 48.02.190 and Section 1, Chapter 161, Laws of 2009, defining eligible uses of funds in the Insurance Commissioner's Regulatory Account, by permitting a current biennium transfer of excess fund balance to the General Fund-State. Since I have vetoed the transfer in Section 803, I am also vetoing the authorization in Section 937.

Section 939, pages 323-324, Exemption for Restaurants and Bars from Temporary Mark-up on Spirits
Section 939 exempts restaurants and bars from paying any price increase made by the Washington State Liquor Control Board during the 2009-11 Biennium if that increase relates to General Fund-State transfers or additional liquor profit distributions. Exempting restaurants and bars would reduce budgeted revenue assumptions by $11 million. Of this amount, $5.5 million directly affects the General Fund-State and its programs. The remaining shortfall could necessitate an increase in the price consumers pay at liquor stores. Restaurant and bars already receive discounts in price and tax exemptions, and it is inappropriate to provide additional discounts at the expense of state programs. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 939.

For these reasons, I have vetoed Sections 109; 117, page 17, lines 10-11; 127(27); 127(28); 127(31); 127(36); 127(38); 127(39); 129, page 35, lines 19-20; 129(3); 129(6); 131(2); 201(7); 204(3)(f); 205(1)(m); 205(1)(n); 205(1)(o); 205(1)(p); 205(1)(r); 205(1)(s); 206(20); 206(21); 207(2); 207(11); 209(14); 209(35); 209(38); 209(39); 209(40); 209(41); 209(42); 209(47); 212(6); 212(7); 214(7); 214(8); 221(21); 221(28); 223(2)(h); 303(3); 303(4); 304 (4); 306(2); 308(15); 501(1)(b); 501(1)(f)(iv); 604(7); 605(5); 708; 717; 803, page 281, line 38, and page 282, lines 1-11; 803, page 283, lines 20-22; 803, page 283, lines 23-27; 803, page 285, lines 28-31; 902; 908; 920; 926; 937; and 939 of Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6444.

With the exception of Sections 109; 117, page 17, lines 10-11; 127(27); 127(28); 127(31); 127(36); 127(38); 127(39); 129, page 35, lines 19-20; 129(3); 129(6); 131(2); 201(7); 204(3)(f); 205(1)(m); 205(1)(n); 205(1)(o); 205(1)(p); 205(1)(r); 205(1)(s); 206(20); 206(21); 207(2); 207(11); 209(14); 209(35); 209(38); 209(39); 209(40); 209(41); 209(42); 209(47); 212(6); 212(7); 214(7); 214(8); 221(21); 221(28); 223(2)(h); 303(3); 303(4); 304 (4); 306(2); 308(15); 501(1)(b); 501(1)(f)(iv); 604(7); 605(5); 708; 717; 803, page 281, line 38, and page 282, lines 1-11; 803, page 283, lines 20-22; 803, page 283, lines 23-27; 803, page 285, lines 28-31; 902; 908; 920; 926; 937; and 939, Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6444 is approved."
